Colmeia
Directed by Maurício Chades
A woman's blunt testimony as she narrates her experience of violence and trauma before and after her time in prison clashes against the landscape behind her, which epitomizes the many other layers of violence that she endured. While looking at the camera, the woman plays tarot cards for humanity (and to ourselves, who watch her as if her counter-plan, as if were asking the cards) and reveals news of the end of the world. Of this world. "If the sky falls on our heads, that's where we shall live."
